Performance of dairy females fed dried yeast from sugar cane

This study was performed in order to evaluate the effect of dried yeast from sugar cane when replacing soybean meal in dairy heifers’ diets. Twenty-four heifers, with an initial body weight (BW) of 178 kg, were distributed in a completely randomized design. The treatments were four levels of inclusion of dried yeast from sugar cane replacing to soybean meal (0, 33, 67 and 100% on a dry matter (...

Effect of Storage Temperature and Light on the Freeze-Dried Amino Acids from Sugar Beet and Sugar Cane Molasses

Molasses is a significant by-product of sugar beet or sugar cane refining industry. In this work, the effects of storage temperature and packaging on the contents of free amino acids (AAs) in sugar beet and sugar cane molasses after freeze drying were inquired. The effect of different variables such as, temperature (4 and 25˚C) and light (Metallized polypropylene container and Normal polypropyl...

Continuous Ethanol Production Using Yeast Immobilized on Sugar-cane Stalks

Sugar-cane stalks, 2.0 cm long, were used as a support for yeast immobilization envisaging ethanol production. The assays were conducted in 38.5 L fermenters containing a bed of stalks with 50% porosity. The operational stability of the immobilized yeast, the efficiency and stability of the process, as well as the best dilution rate were evaluated. Molasses from demerara sugar production was us...

Effect of yeast culture supplementation of alfalfa silage or alfalfa hay fed to lactating dairy cows

Leaf Temperatures of Sugar Cane.

Since the results in the literature are at considerable variance regarding leaf temperatures with reference to the surrounding air temperature, the writer thought it would be of interest to check some leaf temperatures in a different section of the country from those previously reported. The investigations of CURTIS (2) were performed at Berkeley and Riverside, California, and those of CLUM (1)...
